It's often the ground breakers who are subjected to the most mistreatment. Jackie Robinson, the man who integrated Major League Baseball, was verbally abused and subjected to racist actions from team members who were not happy about blacks entering the major leagues. He was spit on as a deliberate show of disrespect.
